HIV: signs, symptoms and causes of aids

Acquired immune deficiency syndrome or simply AIDS is an intense condition that is caused by the human immunodeficiency virus. As I have already told you that this is an acute condition where human immunodeficiency virus immensely weakens the immune system that generally leads to the fatal and life-threatening infections. Initially when HIV manages to enter in your body you may not experience any signs and symptoms but if left untreated the HIV will alter themselves into HIV Aids. However, the process of the alternation of HIV to HIV Aids could be longer approximately 10 to 15 years but when it alters to HIV aids the condition becomes more critical. At that time HIV virus entirely conquers our immune system due to this we can’t even fight off from minor illnesses. It simply ruins our overall immunity.

There are numbers of signs and symptoms have been associated with this condition. When a patient reaches at the stage of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome the patient may develop numbers of acute signs and indications. However, those signs and symptoms may vary from one person to another. Nearly 70 to 80 percent of the people who are infected from HIV generally get flu like symptoms. This is called acute HIV Infection. It is a primary stage of the infection and may last until your body doesn’t make antibodies against this virus. Body rash, Fever, sore throat and severe head ache could be the major primary indications of HIV Aids. Nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, chronic fatigue, weight loss, cough, shortness of breath, memory loss, confusion and neurological disorder are the common traits of Aids.

As we know that HIV virus causes Aids and HIV virus can manage to enter in your body in different ways. However, sexually transmission of this virus is very common. Performing unprotected sexual intercourse whether it is oral form of sex, vaginal sex or anal form of sex can lead to come into contact with HIV virus. Using contaminated needle or syringe may affect you from this virus. Contaminated blood transfusion can also be a major reason for the evolvement of HIV Aids.

True that there is no treatment options exist that can be used to treat Aids infection but early diagnosis and specific treatment can dramatically help you to prevent the progression of this virus. It is usually seen that if the HIV infected person doesn’t get right and prompt treatment then within 10 years they may evolve aids. At that period of time your immunity doesn’t able to fight from even minor infection.
